(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)Expanding high‐elevation and high‐latitude forest has contrasting climate feedbacks through carbon sequestration (cooling) and reduced surface reflectance (warming), which are yet poorly quantified. Here, we present an ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) provide a state-of-the-art process-based approach to study the complex interplay between vegetation and its physical environment. For example, they help to predict how terrestrial ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Pockmarks are seafloor craters usually formed during methane release on continental margins. However, the mechanisms behind their formation and dynamics remain elusive. Here we report detailed investigations on one of the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)The Arctic has been, and is, an area of focus for the botanical and fungal (lichenized fungi included) collections at the Natural History Museum of Oslo. These collections house more than 233,000 unique Arctic specimens, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2016)The flora on the isolated high African mountains or ‘sky islands’ is remarkable for its peculiar adaptations, local endemism and striking biogeographical connections to remote parts of the world. Ages of the plant lineages ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background Several life history and ecological variables have been reported to affect the likelihood of species becoming urbanized. Recently, studies have also focused on the role of brain size in explaining ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Four medicinal floras were compared using phylogenetic methods, to test whether there are shared patterns in medical plant use at the level of the whole medicinal floras, or for specific therapeutic applications. Checklists ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Many herbal products have a long history of use, but there are increasing concerns over product efficacy, safety and quality in the wake of recent cases exposing discrepancies between labeling and constituents. When it ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background Ascetosporea (Endomyxa, Rhizaria) is a group of unicellular parasites infecting aquatic invertebrates. They are increasingly being recognized as widespread and important in marine environments, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Ancient DNA research has been revolutionized following development of next-generation sequencing platforms. Although a number of such platforms have been applied to ancient DNA samples, the Illumina series are the dominant ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract Genetic variation is instrumental for adaptation to changing environments but it is unclear how it is structured and contributes to adaptation in pelagic species lacking clear barriers to gene flow. Here, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga which has historically been an important model system in cell biology. Here, we attempt to re-introduce A. acetabulum as a model system through the investigation of the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)With the change to one scientific name for fungal taxa, generic names typified by species with sexual or asexual morph types are being evaluated to determine which names represent the same genus and thus compete for use. ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2010)Crustose lichen communities on rocks exhibit fascinating spatial mosaics resembling political maps of nations or municipalities. Although the establishment and development of biological populations are important themes in ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Natural history museum collections represent a vast source of ancient and historical DNA samples from extinct taxa that can be utilized by high-throughput sequencing tools to reveal novel genetic and phylogenetic information ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)As the Arctic warms, vegetation is responding, and satellite measures indicate widespread greening at high latitudes. This ‘greening of the Arctic’ is among the world’s most important large-scale ecological responses to ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Aim: Distribution modelling is a useful approach to obtain knowledge about the spatial distribution of biodiversity, required for, for example, red-list assessments. While distribution modelling methods have been applied ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)The Eichigt granite is one of two apical intrusions forming the concealed massif of Eichigt−Schönbrunn in the Erzgebirge−Vogtland metallogenic province of Germany.
